Starting the Soap Box

Why hello there. Didn’t see you come in.

My mother has often told me stories from her work where she and her co-workers will go on rants about any given topic. It need not matter the legitimate importance of this topic, but more so the individual's passion about which they are ranting. If a rant goes on for more than, say, thirty seconds, my mother and her co-workers will pull out a yellow box with the words, "Soap Box" written on it.

So... Welcome to My Soap Box.

This is the place where I will share my thoughts on the general sense and sensibility (or lack thereof) of the world today. And this isn’t just my sounding board; this is a place for you, dear reader, to rant with me. While I realize that “dear reader” is in reference to my sister, some close friends, and a random person who searched for summaries of Jane Austen’s classic, I hope that some day it reaches to many random people who might appreciate my neurotic notions.

This blog is going to cover my journeys as a student, a young person, a son/brother/grandson/uncle, and as a human being in general. This will not be simply a journal to record my daily activities. The purpose of this blog is to write about the great things I experience, and also a chance to write about the things I’d like to change (or that I’d like to see change, at least.)

As I am venturing through my third decade of life, I am learning that the general idea of sense and sensibility is slowly fading. I am hoping that by sharing these thoughts you, dear reader / sister, the world can become a more sensible place - one random blog reader at a time.

Until next time.
